I have a feeling that President Muhammadu Buhari likes to enjoy some spiteful private jokes at the expense of Nigerians. Buhari withdrew into a world of his own as soon as he won the 2015 election. He’s lived in that bubble of self-painted reality far removed from average, normal Nigerians ever since.
He is pursuing a final splurge with reckless abandon and without concern whatsoever for the future of the real Nigerians that gave him the power. Nigeria is on the verge of a Somalia-like outbreak of wars with self-determination groups and emerging warlords ready to slug it out with armed herdsmen who are occupying forests and using the cover provided to perpetrate heinous crimes.

A terrorist insurgency which has claimed 3,000 lives and is threatening to upend the state has gone largely underreported and seems to be of little concern to the country’s neighbours or even the AU. This head-in-the-sand attitude could have disastrous outcomes for the region, warns Mushtak Parker.
There is something surreal about the terrorist insurgency in the northern enclave of Cabo Delgado in Mozambique, seemingly perpetrated by militants “inspired” by the defunct ISIS. It would seem that the government of President Filipe Jacinto Nyusi is in denial of the threat, or simply downplaying it or is incapable of dealing with it.

Reacting, Omokri faulted Shehu’s remark, stressing that Buhari’s administration was responsible for the bad corruption rating.
In a post on his Facebook page, Omokri said: “On Monday, February 1, 2021, Nigerians woke up to a rather shocking accusation. According to Transparency International New Corruption Perception Index, released on Friday, January 29, 2021, Nigeria is more corrupt today than under the previous administration, having moved 13 places backwards in the CPI, from 136 in 2014 to 149 in 2021 (our worst performance ever
